eyes as business men to the situation.

spend her thousands every year in street

change, and a change must come in the

Is, that all Food Baked Roasted should be cooked
in fresh air freely admitted the oven This done
by dcardng the close door heretofore used and
substituting for II a door containing sheet of Wire
Gauze nearly as large as the door itself.
Through this Gauze Door the air freely
circulates, facilitating the of cooking and
producing food that is unequRlled in flavor Tnd nu
triton, and actually cooked with less consumption of
fuel than in oven with a closed door.
